Betcha he goes back to the Cavs. He was having a great year before the trade. That sucks because I'd rather have him than Giricek.

Newble
Lue
Cassell

I'd love to pick up at least one of them to add to this team with Giricek as well. Cassell is most likely going to Boston, I can see Newble going back to Cleveland. I haven't heard anything about who is interested in Lue, but I hope the Suns take a very hard look at him unless they have an agreement with Cassell. I could even see the Suns possibly looking at Newble as well. Giricek can play the back-up 2 with Barbosa at the back-up PG, and Newble backing up Grant. That would be good too.

Newble? He's like a fat Quinton Ross. I'd rather have Giricek.

Now if you are a true basketball fan and have watched these guys, they play some defense. In terms of defense, they rank Newble, Lue, Giricek.

Don't see how Newble is a fat Ross?

This guy refused to go into the game to play garbage minutes when Mike Brown asked him to.

There is a REASON these players are being waived, guys.

As long as it isn't killing anybody and they have game...who cares? We need a body in here that can contribute. We can put up with a bad attitude for the remainder of the season.
